Panana Cake

I came across a recipe for pancakes that you make with a banana and some egg and I HAD to try it to see if it really worked. My thoughts were that the finished product would be a scramcake (A scrambled egg/pancake). And yet, again...I have been proven wrong. This recipe is super easy, very healthy and absolutely delicious. Top with anything you like, I used almond butter and honey. It takes 10 minutes tops to make. So try it. This may be my new go-to breakfast. Well, at least until I get tired of it.

Here's What You Do:
Take 1 large banana and mash it into a bowl. Crack one whole egg and 1 egg white into the bowl with the mashed banana and whip it like you would to make scrambled eggs. Add a pinch of salt. You could also add in cinnamon.

The banana/egg mixture

Get a skillet nice and hot and melt some coconut oil in the pan. If you act too soon and add your mixture in too early, you will come out with some really pale, almost scrambled egg looking pancakes. Like these (still delicious, mind you):

But if you wait for the skillet to get hot enough, you will get this lovely, delicious pananacake. It's so good. I would have never in a million years thought you could make a pancake out of just a banana and an egg, but here's the proof! It works. And it's good. So you should try it.
